It is with much regret that I have to inform you that Mr J R Mackley died on Saturday 5th April 2008. I am sure you will join me in offering the family our condolences. “Mr. Jack” as he was known by many, was a tremendous character – a hard businessman but extremely loyal to his staff and workforce. He was Managing Director from 1954 until 1980 after which he became Chairman and continued to take an avid interest in the business. He often visited sites with his friend Doctor Dingemans, turning up unannounced in his Rolls and grilling the unfortunate Site Agent as to how much money we were making on the job!!!

As a mark of respect, the flag will be at half mast.
